Struggling to see upside with this core. Lagging far behind other young teams that started rebuilding at same time (Magic, Rockets, Spurs, Thunder). We’re on same level with Hornets. But At least in Charlotte Lamelo has looked like a superstar this year and Miller is legit.

Cade is good not great player
Holland is years away from being ready
Ivey is crazy inconsistent
Ausar has all the physical tools and bbiq but shot still broken
Duren has a poor motor and a disaster defensively
Stewart needs to be moved to a contender. Probably pistons most movable asset. And Stew deserves to play some meaningful bball

Beasley signing exceeding all expectations. Harris and thj have been up and down. But i like the vets with Tek

The problem is the lack of talent in young core guys unfortunately. Not sure how much better Ivey and Duren can be. Ausar one glaring issue makes him unplayable in certain lineups/situations.

They should honestly still be in tank wars. They need Cooper Flagg

No point in tanking with the way the lottery is set up now. Those players limited ceilings will naturally keep them in the lottery right now and I'm ok with that. We don't have 2 really good young guys like those other teams do. It's almost like this is the real first year after the rebuild process started. They aren't going to make the play-in at this pace so they'll have just as much a shot as damn near anyone else at those top picks. I'm just hoping we get lucky and that the pick fukking hits wherever it is.

Stan was 100% right when he said the Pistons young core isn’t one of the top young cores and if you don’t have the best young core there’s no point. Tanking now also makes no sense unless you want to trade Cade for a kings ransom that doesn’t exist right now. Weaver tanked while not accumulating picks and extra swings at the bat, that’s a main point where he went wrong, he dealt at least 6 picks for Wiseman and Bagley who already failed and then traded a couple more to get rid of Bagley. It would help in the interim if we could get a first for Stewart or Duren to compensate for still owing the knicks pick

People gotta stop posting this bullshyt. It’s his contract year and he didn’t sign with a new agent to take a deal with the Pistons lol. He’s probably faking his current injury and even if he’s not he misses a quarter of every season

I dont see Cooper Flag being a 'great' player at the moment as well.

Cade want all the Brunson smoke.

Good maybe he’ll drop to us at #5

 

[eastside313]

If it’s one thing Cade can learn from Tobias. It’s making sure you get fouled going to rack. Tobias wild ass gonna make sure you foul him.

 

[valet]

Hate the pace of this game but if Cade keeps this up for 4 quarters, we got this

 

[djthegreat88]

Might be Cades best game as pro

 

[wire28]

double digit wins

 

[eastside313]

Nets,pacers,bulls,hawks,heat is the current competition for the bottom half of the playoffs and play in. They can compete with them teams.

 

[valet]

Hopefully, Holland can continue to play like this.

Everybody on the damn Celtics team shoot 3’s. And when did Payton Prichard become Steph curry
